well, his combat skill have seen some noteable points...
but... those tattoos..?
ther are not tattoos.
they are 'twattoos'.
even some basic cod sort of off the shelf tribal stuff would be a far more sensible choice... but the ones he has...
oh for shame!

There is a difference between pure fighter and martial artist. I really think we need to make a movement away from the douchebag pure fighter to martial artist. I personally believe if you truly want to be a good fighter, you need a martial artist attitude anyways. e.g. GSP, A. Silva, Fedor, etc.

So Greco and savate aren't martial arts? The whole stoic budo schtick isn't universal throughout fighting arts.

From people who have worked with Lesnar and some of his behind-the-scenes stuff, from WWE to the present day, he doesn't seem like such a douchebag when he's not in character. I think he's just gotten way too comfortable with getting people to hate him in exchange for money.

And its worked beautifully. His antics don't seem to be cutting into his revenue stream at all. Maybe the UFC and WWE aren't so different after all.

I kind of like the giant broad sword tattoo. At least it's a little different and sort of goes along with his persona (I am a giant primitive viking warrior! RAAHHR!).

MMA does have heels and they even talk freely about being them such as the Diaz brothers. They did an article for a couple of mags talking about how they were told to go with the flow of being hated.One of them even flicked the crowd off during a finishing triangle hold.

YouTube - Brock Lesnar UFC100 trash talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wa3P0S6o_-A)
What heavyweight do ya'll think will put him in his place. Are there really any good ones left; Silvia, Arlovski, and Couture are pretty much done and Nogueria is past his prime.
Wanna fight

Do steroids make your voice high pitched? This guys been a douchbag from birth, he's always been overly confident which is sometimes he's downfall. i.e. his first fight against Mirr.
I look forward to the Lesner/Kimbo fight hopefully in the not so distant future

Meh. I can't maintain any hate for this guy. The apology seemed genuine. I just DON'T want the UFC to go the route of the WWE (of which I was never a fan). But as long as he's going to be a serious fighter, my beef with him is pretty much over.

I think that while UFC guys should amp up the fights with bravado, acting like an asshole accomplishes nothing. Lesnar spend a lot of time in the WWE and no doubt is used to this sort of nonsense.

In all great things their will be what we call ruiners, Brock lesnar is to respect what fire is to water. He needs to go back to wrestling except that he's so lazy he can't physically compete every week, lesnar needs to take a year off between matches while still getting paid. To me you are the ruiner of the sport; I only watch the fights with you in it, in hopes that I see someone knock your giant head around like a tether ball. Kind of like the way Shane Carwin did to you in the first round. The only reason you have won any of your matches isn't due to talent, it's due to you weighting around 60 lbs higher than the average heavy weight. If you weighed in ten minutes before the fight do you still think that you would win? The answer is no of course. Brock you would be tired and weak from the massive diet you hit before weigh in you would be weak and lack all of your power and a great deal of your size. Lesnar you’re a joke and you belong somewhere between here and repossessing peoples cars, that’s what you are Brock, you’re a fucking ass hole and on behalf of everyone else let me be on the first to say I hope you get slow stomach cancer and die a slow and painful death.
